b) The sides of an excavation 2.5m deep in sand are to be supported by a cantilever sheet pile wall, the water table being im below the bottom of the excavation. The unit weight of the sand above the water table is 17kN/m3, and below the water table the saturated unit weight is 20kN/m3. Characteristic strength parameters are c'=0, q=35°. Allowing for a surcharge pressure of 10 kPa on the surface, determine the required depth of embedment of the piling to satisfy the rotational limit states to Eurocode 7, DA1b. (25 marks) a
